If the Packers don't win this game, it might be time for some panic to creep into the fan base.

The Lions are hurt, and their offensive line is bad. I know that sounds like the Vikings, but this defense is not of that caliber. Ansah, their best defensive player (maybe Slay is close), is hurt and may not play. Andre Levy is hurt and may not play. Their other starting linebacker is out, too. As APB points out, Abdullah is out - they have only a scat back as a running back in Theo Riddick. Hali Ngata is slowing down.

Stafford has been playing well. But if the Packers can't beat this beat-up team at home, then there is some very real trouble in Green Bay - especially if the offense can't score again.
